I want to thank you guys. Because of you i did my rear calipers, rotors, and pads. Now i need to do my front brakes. You guys saved me hundreds! Thanks!
Why bleed the brake line when it was totally sealed the whole time? I can understand if you were replacing the caliper but that wasn't done in this case. Am I missing something?
50 foot pounds on those caliper guide pin bolts is wayyyy too much. Ask me how I know. It's more in the area of 20 ft lbs. Can you please edit the video to correct this.
dont forget to pump the brake pedal before putting it in gear I have seen this happen a few times where techs start the veh put it in reverse and press the gas pedal than they cant stop
Are the slide pins seized? I guess you don't know if you don't check them! It also looks like backing off that caliper piston is taking way more force than it should.
Is it just me seeing this or does someone else also sees it? The torque wrench he used to "torque down" the caliper bolts isn't even a torque wrench? 50-ft is definitely way too much torque. 20-ft is the correct amount!

Shouldn't you have the reservoir cap off when compressing the piston?

According to the Haynes manual, caliper mounting bolts are 16 to 23 ft/lbs, and caliper mounting bracket bolts are 58 to 72 ft/lbs. Hope that helps.

no grease on the slide pins?

23 ft/lbs on the guide pins. I maxxed at 33. 50ft/lbs is pushing it.
Great one now I know how to you just save me $$$$ thanks to you and TH-cam
Torch for the caliper bolts is wrong, I broke two bolts trying to hit 50 ft lbs. Please fix this video. Otherwise the video is very good.
Already stripped out 2 new guide pins
50lbs is likely too much. I just twisted my caliper bolt out of its threads.
Surprised you didn’t re grease the pins
Easy to understand and to the point. Great video. Thanks.

Thank you, this is so helpful
How do I know if i need to replace the rotors
Short and simple
YOU NEED TO FIX THIS VIDEO, PEOPLE ARE SNAPPING THEIR BOLTS BECAUSE YOU SAID 50 FT. LBS. --- IT IS 20 FT. LBS. !!!

Just snapped my caliper bolts, please edit or delete this video
Torque specs WAAAAY out of line. broke a caliper pin bolt. thanks for nothing.
Los tornillos que sujetan la pinza no los sacas y los limpias y los engrasas??
Vaya mecánico cutre yo no recomiendo
Lol so many extra things you're doing.. 😅 So extra.
Didn’t even change his dirty gloves when he went to clean the rotors off smart
